Kerry King has earned his reputation as one of Thrash Metal’s premier guitarists by consistently delivering crushing riffs, ripping tones and live performances of a Panzer tank division. Just as consistent is King’s stated preference for B.C. Rich guitars, which have fueled his sonic fire for years.

B.C. Rich works closely with Kerry to offer a selection of “Kerry King Approved” guitars that meet both his demanding expectations and ours. From the Signature Wartribe and Kerry King V to the Metal Master Warlock and Beast V, these are guitars that reflect Kerry’s requirements for consummate playability, tone and construction. Pick one up and you’ll see for yourself why Kerry King slays the masses with B.C. Rich guitars.

Neil Giraldo Signature EagleWhen you think of the classic B.C. Rich Guitars lineup (Bich, Mockingbird and Eagle guitars), it’s hard not to visualize Neil Giraldo with his early ‘80s, Bigsby equipped Kato Green Sunburst Eagle. Neil is without question one the most noteworthy artists to emerge from the B.C. Rich Guitars Golden Era. From his earliest works with Pat Benatar to his latest projects, his trusty Eagle Supreme affectionately known as Kato has provided the ultimate platform for his aggressive bends and signature style.

Loaded for the kill with a Seymour Duncan SH4 bridge position humbucker and SH2 neck position humbucker, the Neil Giraldo Signature Eagle is the first ever B.C. Rich production model to come standard with a Bigsby tremolo. Combined with the Eagle’s mahogany body and neck-through construction, the tremolo brings an additional level of warmth and makes for smooth and effortless bends on its 24.58 scale, 24 fret easy access neck.
